Almost as good as Sheridans other offerings but not quite. Ford and Mirren are outstanding as always. Support cast are decent enough. I spent the scenes with the dreadful Alex waiting for a) an elephant to trample her b) a shark to eat her or c) to just fall overboard. She's dreadful. End of.

The scenery, the storyline especially that of the demise of the Native American girl (truly harrowing) and Sheridans impeccable script make for an exceptional series. It took me 3 - 4 episodes to ease in probably because Yellowstone was riveting from the get go and I wrongly expected the same.

Stick with it doubters.

Ok, it may be far fetched but the premise of a group of MI5 cast offs with a disgusting article of humanity as a leader is fairly precious. I've worked with folk like him (yes, they exist) and I have no doubt he will turn out to be the best boss they've had. Uncouth, unclean and overwhelmingly rude but nevertheless amusing. He alone makes me want to watch more.

Apple have churned out better stuff than the other streaming services and whilst this isn't the best of those, it's certainly worth a watch. For the naysayers, it's not a documentary so lighten up.

The title of this review pretty much sums it up. And I stupidly paid £20 to view the entire series. On top of my regular streaming fee. There are so many better sci fi series out there now. I'm a huge fan of Discovery but no more. I'm off to watch re-runs of the way more superior Battlestar.

Adama and the XO would be horrified.
